Hi people, sorry if this thread is in the wrong place/already been asked, first time poster.
My question is as the title suggests Do banks etc profit from selling details to credit report web sites?
The reason I ask is that Mint CC has posted incorrect defaults on my credit report (yes I had some duely but they even posted I had defaults before I opened the account which ment I wouldnt have even been 18) and before writing to them I wanted some back up ammo as the Data protection act states data must be "accurate and, where necessary, kept up-to-date" in it golden rules.
Thanks Rob

No they dont make any money from reporting your file.I all have learnt is from others on many sites.
Seek legal help if unsure.
Dont pay Private Parking tickets - they are mere invoices.
PRESS THANKS
